Saw something telling in the NO game

[AbeBeta]

When Brees goes back to pass, he stands in the pocket and no one is chasing him for several seconds. This appears to allow receivers to get open and for him to decide which receiver is the most open.

I've really only watched the Cowboys for a while, so I haven't seen anything like that. Is that some sort of new offensive approach?

I knew we shouldn't have let Payton get away the creative SOB. :laugh2:

 

[interestedobserver]

It's called a good offensive line.

Payton would have just been another puppet HC over here.

We know who really runs the show in Big D.

 

[gmoney112]

Interesting. This does indeed seem like a solid offensive approach.

 

[Thatkidbob]

I'm not 100% sure you're being serious, but I'm going to answer with the assumption that you are.

No, it's not a new thing... Brees has a very good line that gives him lots of time to read the defense and wait for a receiver to get open. It's indicative of the strength of his OL in pass protection, and shows that our line is fairly weak by comparison.

 

[Doomsday]

They also had receiving options running on all levels to really put pressure on the defense, a concept that seems to be lost on JG.

Sounds like one of Peyton's "jap"plays. We don't run too many trick plays here so we'll just stick to having Romo drop back and spin around like he's in the ice capades before he's sacked or injured.

Yup. They have the best offensive line in the league IMO and ours is one of the worst.

He really does apper to be so much more "elite" than Romo as he does it.

This guy is an interested observer and got the joke.

I like the way you are thinking. You may be on to something. I have about 6 months or so of the off season to study your theory and see if the Cowboys would benefit by adopting this approach.

This is crazy talk. Patently absurd. What you're describing isn't even legal probably.

I'm fairly certain NFL rules mandate that, after taking the snap, the quarterback must avoid a minimum of two rushers on his own and then throw the ball.

I hear it's also easier to find the open man when you've got more receivers running a pattern...

Pass Attempts with 4+ WR in Formation
Romo 124
Brees 378

...and when your backs are receivers instead of blockers...

RB receiving
Cowboys 578 yds 0 td
Saints 1,247 yds 10 td

Says it for me.

[landroverking]

It is something that starts in pee wee football called blocking.

 

[Future]

Drew Brees would be average in Dallas. Romo throws for 7000 in NO.
